Ines spotlight on Canadian designers - Denis Gagnon

We all love leather, and because of this, we love fashion designers who love leather. Enter Canadian designer Denis Gagnon, a Quebec, Canada native who uses his stylish collections to indulge in his preferred fetish material... leather!

Denis' creative artistry originally manifested itself in making costumes for theatre troupes. Then, in 2000, he debuted his first solo collection to a huge response.

Denis is known worldwide for his couture approach to using leather in his designs. His pieces are themselves works of art, made from the combination of precision and style. In the photograph above, you are seeing a first glimpse of Denis Gagnon's fall/ winter collection for this coming season. The model seems to be celebrating by wearing gloves very similar to my where are my fingers gloves! These unique gloves will make a unique addition to any fall ensemble.

What an elegant use of leather! A slightly oversized bolero-like leather jacket with beautiful long sensual past elbow gloves. Wearing shorter sleeves like this will definitely work to show off your fantastic gloves...

Leather is still going strong in the fashion world, and shows no signs of disappearing. Make leather accessories part of your daily ensemble, as they are both practical and very fashionable!
